PLEASANTON -- Law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty were honored Saturday with the California Peace Officers Association's 5th Annual "A Run to Remember" 10K Run & 5K Run/Walk at Shadow Cliffs Regional Park.

Trophies were handed out to the top 5K and 10K male and female finishers.

Special awards went to kids 12 and under who took part in the Kids' Fun Run, a 1-mile run in the park's lawn area.

Race day registration was $25. All proceeds go toward supporting families and co-workers of deceased officers through the nonprofit Concerns of Police Survivors association.
